Hidden beneath the streets of London is a dark and dreadful establishment known as The Monster Club, where vampires indulge in a rather different
kind of Bloody Mary and ghouls tear into their gruesome repasts. Here, along with the usual monsters—vampires,
werewolves, ghouls, and some of Dr Frankenstein's more freakish creations—you'll find other, less familiar ones. You'll meet the
frightening Fly-by-Night, the hideous shaddy, the horrible mock, and the dreaded shadmock, perhaps the most terrifying of all. When
Donald McCloud offers a starving man a meal, he unexpectedly discovers that the man is a vampire—and he's the main course. Accompanying
the vampire, Eramus, to The Monster Club, Donald encounters a whole host of strange monsters, who, in a series of five linked stories,
recount to Donald their monstrous exploits. But as Donald is regaled with these terrifying tales of monsters and their unfortunate human
victims, it gradually dawns on him that as the only human in a club full of bloodthirsty monsters, he might be in a bit of a
predicament . . . First published as a paperback in 1976, R. Chetwynd-Hayes's The Monster Club was adapted for a 1981 film
starring Vincent Price, John Carradine, and Donald Pleasence, and both book and film have gone on to become cult classics. Told
in a wry, tongue-in-cheek style, the tales in The Monster Club are simultaneously horrific, comical, and curiously
moving. This edition is the first in more than twenty years and features a new introduction by Stephen Jones and a reproduction of
John Bolton's painting from the rare comic book adaptation of the film.

Reviews

"Ronald Chetwynd-Hayes was regularly one of the top ten authors whose work was borrowed from British libraries throughout the seventies—so says Stephen Jones in his excellent Introduction. In fact Jones does such a thorough job it leaves this reviewer with nothing new to say about the man or his work other than to waffle on for several hundred words then end with a recommendation to buy the book."
